Correct. We don't have double overdrive transmissions, so on a 5 speed you'd be in 5th. To get down to that RPM at highway speeds requires a double overdrive trans. I'm speaking about these people buzzing around at 30mph in third... |

I just tried to roll at 1500 RPM...No thanks, my engine sounds like a diesel if I put it into 5th at 30 mph.

I guess I don't have any areas where I would be rolling at 30 for enough time to put it in 5th. But I just don't feel right having my RPMs anywhere under 2000. After your post I did go up a gear in some situations (like 5th gear at 40) so thanks!

Yeah, we're a bit flatter here I'm sure. Not as flat as Florida of course, but we are on the edge of the great plains... |

It's not about flatness but more about traffic, speed limits, and stoplights probably. I'd rather roll in 3rd at 30 for 5 extra seconds instead of upshifting to 4th and then downshifting to 3rd or even 2nd.
